Life is vastly different today from when I was a youngster.
Back then, you knew there were plenty of good solid careers you could dedicate yourself to, work hard, buy a home and as long as you were sensible and smart and kept on doing a great job, you could live out your life in one career and make a decent living.
In some ways that probably seems as boring as the proverbial for the younger generations, but there was a lot to be said for feeling settled.
Now, the list of careers likely to endure for the long term is growing shorter all the time. It’s increasingly necessary in today’s career life to be multi-passionate, a ‘slashie’ (having several different strings to your bow and using all of them to bring in income), an entrepreneur, or focusing on traits and acquired skill sets that are highly transferable and switching jobs rather than aspiring to stay in one spot for a long time.
I really feel for the personality types who like to stay put, dedicate themselves to a small number of things and take life at a steady pace without constant change. Statistically I’m guessing that’s roughly half the population. No wonder anxiety and depression are on the rise.
Our notions of security and stability are increasingly challenged and having a Plan B for your income has never been a better idea than it is right now.
So today I’m going to give you some examples of how your healthy essential oils obsession and desire to improve your health plus switching to a non-toxic environment in your home can help you develop an independent Young Living business – something you can do in an organic or highly goal-orientated and focused way, part-time or full-time.
One of the many beauties is that it’s all up to you. Thorough tortoise or fast-paced hare, you can tackle your Young Living business the way that feels best with a company that’s been established successfully for well over 20 years and going from strength to strength. When you join Young Living via links on our website or clicking here, you’ll be connected up with our Good Oil Team.
This post is all about switching your buying habits and seeing how easy it is to pre-qualify each month so that as your business grows, your own PV (personal volume) points are more than sufficient to make you eligible to receive any commissions that are due. To delve into the nitty gritty of how those commissions are earned, please check out our other resources.
To qualify for commissions (at the time of writing) you need 100PV (personal volume) points, which is made up of the PV of products you’ve ordered that month plus the PV of any retail customers in your frontline team.
Essential Rewards is the monthly autoship programme. You can change your order each month and it’s the very best way to place your orders, because it’s rich with extra bonuses and incentives. More on that here.
The minimum for ER orders is 50PV but you don’t get all the available perks unless your ER order is at least 100PV AND that also ensures you’re qualified to receive commissions. So in a nutshell, I do recommend an ER order of at least 100PV. I’m more than happy to answer your questions: please head to Contact to get in touch.
Here are a bunch of ideas for using Young Living essential oils, personal care, safe cleaners, make-up, foods and supplements daily. It’s by no means comprehensive. We’ve barely scratched the scratch!
You’ll see that just by switching your regular purchases to beautiful Young Living items will support you and your family instead of adding to the coffers of the local supermarket conglomerate or health food store. (No disrespect to anyone reading who owns a health food store! We still drop in for perishables and bibs and bobs at our local.)

Not all oils are created equal. Far from it. Quality varies immensely, so please ensure you are choosing a brand with complete transparency from seed to seal, such as Young Living. Discover why we love them so much in this short video.
Essential oils are potent, so as always, please follow directions on the bottle and the usual guidelines for safe use of authentic essential oils.
